Sneaker design to combine aesthetics of ballet shoe and accessible sneakers for adults. Velcro straps meant to increase ease of wear, style, and degrees of freedom to accommodate many foot shapes and profiles. Inspired by profile of basketball shoes and method of tying ribbons to wear a ballet pointe shoe. As someone who is a former ballerina who transitioned to hip hop dance, the target market would be those who need ankle support along with flexibility and style, like most hip hop dancers.
